Ted:
Look, all I'm saying is that Boston women are, on the whole, a paler, uglier sort than women from the elsewheres of life.
John:
That's bullshit. What about Lori? She's hot.
Ted:
No, Lori's from Pennsylvania. That's not a Boston girl.
John:
They're not that bad.
Ted:
See, the fact that you have to say "they're not that bad" means that they are that bad.
Guy watching the movie: So that’s where Ted’s Law comes from!

Get the law mug.Walding's Law is an adage that is best described as:
Paranoia in the development stage of any serious relationship that anything could cause an end to said relationship.
This is typically more frequent in youthful relationships where relationships tend not to last as long as more mature relationships. This being said does not exclude it from happening to mature and professional relationships.
This phenomenon is common within romantic relationships however it may occur outside one, such as in a new social or professional position.

3. Doing a task incorrectly could cause you to lose your new job.
4. Acting too much like yourself could make a newfound friend to lose interest in your friendship.
